“Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.

“The duty of the individual is to accept no rule, to be the initiator of his own acts, to be responsible. Only if he does so will the society live, and change, and adapt, and survive. We are not subjects of a State founded upon law, but members of a society formed upon revolution. Revolution is our obligation: our hope of evolution.” ~Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed
